About

The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and The University of Texas at San Antonio remain at the forefront of community health for the residents of San Antonio, Bexar County and its 38-county service area.

Improving health outcomes for Texans

The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and The University of Texas at San Antonio remain at the forefront of community health for the residents of San Antonio, Bexar County and its 38-county service area. Ensuring South Texas has a skilled workforce in all aspects of public health is critical as we seek to continue to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are committed to building a healthier community and improving health outcomes for our communities through public health education, prevention and policy. Together, we will continue to train scientists, researchers and students who are dedicated to promoting and protecting the health of people and their communities.

A new School of Public Health to serve the unique population of San Antonio and South Texas

The University of Texas System Board of Regents has approved plans to create a School of Public Health, a collaboration between The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, also called UT Health San Antonio, and The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). The new graduate school will provide academic instruction relevant to public health and serve as a focus of research activities directed toward community health problems, as it maintains and grows relationships with all entities interested in public health.

The University of Texas School of Public Health San Antonio will begin accepting students in 2024, offering advanced graduate degrees. Through its coursework, it will provide a unique public health education by integrating advanced health research, collaborating on new academic programs to serve a diverse population and building public health leaders who understand and are dedicated to finding positive interventions to mitigate our greatest public health challenges.

Working together to combat community health problems and disparities in care

Building on the combined expertise of UT Health San Antonio and UTSA in data science, epidemiology and biostatistics, behavioral science, finance and business administration and implementation science, The University of Texas School of Public Health San Antonio will prioritize health care needs in South Texas. The area has a population of 5 million people and includes bustling urban areas, large minority communities and underserved rural areas. The new school will generate a workforce of trained public health professionals who will serve to promote the overall health of South Texans through:

  • New public policy base on science, aimed at better health outcomes;
  • Enhanced security and protection from infectious disease and environmental hazards;
  • Improved access to safe and quality care;
  • Efforts to diminish public health disparities;
  • Prospective strategic planning for future public health challenges.

This research-intensive, community-centric School of Public Health will also work to address the current and future demand for public health professionals within San Antonio and the border region.

Uncompensated patient care

Clinical

Uncompensated Care includes the residual unreimbursed costs for the uninsured (those with no source of third party insurance) and the underinsured (those with insurance who after contractual adjustment and third party payments have a responsibility to pay for an amount they are unable to pay). Uncompensated care also includes the unreimbursed cost from governmental sponsored health programs. The Health Science Center converts gross charges for uncompensated care to cost by relating them to the Medicare fee schedule on an aggregate weighted average basis. The institution recognizes payments from patients, government sponsored programs (Medicare, Medicaid and local government programs) and other appropriate lump sums, including any amounts received from Upper Payment Limit, as funding available to offset costs.

Uni History

UT Health San Antonio's History

Two-grain silos and a hundred-acre dairy farm have been miraculously transformed over the past few decades to a Health Science Center of international renown. In 1959 Gov. Price Daniel signed House Bill 9, creating the South Texas Medical School. Six years later, the Joe J. Nix Dairy Farm, a wide expanse of grazing land, cattle pens, milking barns and silos to store cattle feed, was conveyed to the State of Texas to build a School of Medicine. On July 12, 1968, The University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio (which had been renamed in 1967) and Bexar County Teaching Hospital (now University Health) was dedicated. Other schools were added in succeeding years, and in 1972 the institution's name officially became The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Today, UT Health San Antonio is a vital part of San Antonio's $42.4 billion health care and bioscience industry. The university graduates approximately 200 physicians, 400 nurses, 100 dentists, 400 health professionals in other fields, and 100 scientists each year. Additionally, the health science center provides a vast amount of continuing medical and dental education, affords 2 million patient visits each year, and covers approximately $501 million of gross charges annually foruncompensated health care services.

Care Helpful Info

Helpful Information

Most of us are reluctant to become involved in a friend or colleague's personal business. However, a genuine expression of care and concern, along with a referral for help, may help avert stress, behavioral concerns or violence.

Frequently asked questions

  • What are the warning signs that a person may become violent?

    Often people who act violently have trouble controlling their feelings. They may have been hurt by others. Some think that making people fear them through violence will solve their problems or earn them respect. This isn't true.

    People who behave violently lose respect. They find themselves isolated or disliked, and they still feel angry and frustrated.

    If you notice certain warning signs, violence is a serious possibility.

  • What can you do if someone you know shows violence warning signs of violence?

    When you recognize warning signs of violence in someone else, there are things you can do. Hoping that someone else will deal with the situation is the easy way out.

    Above all, be safe. Don’t spend time alone with people who show these signs. If possible without putting yourself in danger, remove the person from the situation that’s setting them off.

    Tell someone you trust and respect about your concerns and ask for help. This could be a family member, teacher, clergy member or a friend. On campus, contact UT Advantage Faculty & Staff Assistance Program offered through Human Resources, UT Police Department, Student Counseling Service or the Student Health Center.

    If you are worried about being a victim of violence, get someone in authority to protect you. Do not resort to violence or use a weapon to protect yourself.

    The key to really preventing violent behavior is asking an experienced professional for help. Do not try to handle the situation alone.

  • Are you at risk for violent behavior?

    If you recognize any of the warning signs for violent behavior in yourself, get help. You don’t have to live with the guilt, sadness and frustration that come from hurting others. Admitting you have a concern about hurting others is the first step. The second is to talk to a trusted professional.

  • How can I recognize suicidal behavior?

    Some people who have trouble dealing with their feelings don’t react by lashing out at others. Instead, they direct violence toward themselves. The most final and devastating expression of this kind of violence is suicide.

    Like people who are violent toward others, potential suicide victims often behave in a recognizable way before they try to end their lives. Suicide, like other forms of violence, is preventable. The two most important steps in prevention are recognizing warning signs and getting help.

  • What are the warning signs for suicide?

    Become familiar with warning signs of behavior that could escalate into violence:

    • Talks about committing suicide
    • Has trouble eating or sleeping
    • Exhibits drastic changes in behavior
    • Withdraws from friends or social activities
    • Loses interest in school, work or hobbies
    • Prepares for death by writing a will and making final arrangements
    • Gives away prized possessions
    • Has attempted suicide before
    • Takes unnecessary risks
    • Has recently experienced serious losses
    • Seems preoccupied with death and dying
    • Loses interest in his or her personal appearance
    • Increases alcohol or drug use
  • How can I tell if I am stressed out and should see help?

    Answer the following questions. The more questions you answer with a “yes,” the more important it is that you should seek help.

    • Do you feel overloaded?
    • Do you feel more burdened than usual?
    • Do you find yourself feeling short-tempered, and losing patience with others lately?
    • Are you feeling frustrated by things that usually don’t frustrate you?
    • Do you have difficulty concentrating?
    • Are you crying more than usual?
    • Have you had any major change in appetite or sleep patterns?
    • Are you experiencing stomach pain or uneasiness?
    • Are your neck and shoulders sore? Are you having backaches?
    • Are you clenching or grinding your teeth?
    • Are you experiencing feelings of hopelessness about academic, professional or personal problems?
    • Do you feel you just can’t see your way out of the situation?

About Us

Mission

The mission of the Center for Mucosal and Microbiome Biology (CMMB) is to support the advancement of microbiome research and education at UTHSA with the ultimate goal of translating discoveries in this field into innovative diagnostics and therapeutics that save lives. The center aims to bolster collaboration between investigators, creating research infrastructure support, enhancing trainee development, and assisting in the recruitment of new faculty with an outstanding track record of research in the fields of microbiome and mucosal biology. From basic science to clinical trials, research at the Center for Mucosal & Microbiome Biology will focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the interface between the microbiome and the mucosa, with the primary aim of identifying unique therapeutic platforms and bio-marker signatures to reduce morbidity and mortality from metabolic, infectious, and inflammatory diseases.

Mucosae have complex biological responses to harmful stimuli that are regulated in part by the microbiome; therefore, an interdisciplinary collaborative effort is critical to fully understand its molecular pathogenesis. Understanding these cellular and molecular regulatory mechanisms of the mucosal-microbiome interface will lead to the development of novel anti-inflammatory strategies and accelerate the successful establishment of cutting-edge therapeutic approaches for future clinical trials.

Education

The Center for Mucosal & Microbiome Biology is focused on bolstering the curriculum at UTHSCSA. We are currently developing the following courses.

The Microbiome & the Associated Metabolites (MICR-TBD)

The field of microbiome is rapidly expanding in both basic and clinical scientific research. Whether in the gut or oral cavity, the microbiome and the associated metabolites play an integral role in human health and can significantly affect disease outcomes. This course will provide an overview on the role of the microbiome and the associated metabolites in human health and disease. It will focus on clarifying the conceptual framework for understanding how microbiome, particularly gut microbiome, impact on human health and well-being. The course will also introduce students to the technical approaches and bioinformatics required to study the microbiome and the associated metabolites in the hosts.

Topics covered include:

  • The concept of the microbiome and its role in human health
  • The role of the microbiome and associated metabolites in different systems (e.g., oral cavity and gut-brain-axis)
  • The impact of alterations to the gut microbiome by pathogenic diseases and inflammation (gut dysbiosis)
  • Research strategies and multiomic approaches for working with human and murine gut microbiome (bioinformatics, transcriptomic, and metabolomic analyses)
  • Animal models used to investigate the microbiome
  • Modification of the gut microbiome via dietary, supplemental, and the potential for novel treatments

CMMB Research

Research

The Center for Mucosal & Microbiome Biology specializes in the use of Multiomic Approaches to create a comprehensive picture of the complex interplay between the microbiome and human health. Multiomics is a new approach to biological analysis where data sets of different omics groups (transcriptome, metabolome, etc.) are combined to create a thorough biological analysis.

The applications for multiomics are vast, ranging from elucidating the nature of host-pathogen interactions to illuminating the mechanisms behind non-communicable diseases. By combining these various "omic" approaches, scientists can analyze complex biological data to determine novel associations between biological entities, identify important biomarkers and build elaborate markers of disease and physiology.

The Center utilizes & and will train faculty in the following areas of multiomics:

  • Metabolome Approaches
  • Transcriptome Approaches (RNA-seq, scRNA-seq)
  • Epigenome Approaches (DNA-methylation, Chromatin Accessibility)
  • Microbiome Approaches

Facilities Services

Our Services

Facilities Management is responsible for the operation, maintenance and renovation of the physical facilities of The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Funds are provided by the State Legislature and the institution to operate all buildings and support systems as required for the HSC mission and to maintain all facilities in safe and efficient working order.

Any and all changes to UTHSCSA physical facilities must be performed and/or coordinated through Facilities Management. All connections, other than convenience type plug-in utensils, made to the various utility systems (water, steam, chilled water, sewer, electrical, etc.) must be made by Facilities Management personnel or appropriately licensed technician under the direct supervision of the Facilities Management Department.

A primary requirement is that Facilities Management personnel have knowledge of the exact condition of the physical facilities at all times and that the proposed installation meets appropriate current codes or standards. To maintain that knowledge, Facilities Management personnel are available to assist with the planning of any new or renovation project to the building structures or grounds area of HSC property.

  • Types of Services

    Services are divided into two basic types:

    FM-FUNDED SERVICES

    FM Funded Services are those for which Facilities Management receives budget allocations. Basically, these are services directly related to the operation, maintenance, and upkeep of Health Science Center facilities. They are rendered free of charge. Examples of FM Funded Services include:

    • Maintenance and repair services to buildings and building systems, elevators, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, electrical distribution systems, roofs, etc. These services are generally performed on structures, additions, and equipment which, if vacated by present occupants, would require no alterations, special furnishing or remodeling for occupancy by some other HSC department.
    • Maintenance of walks, streets, and grounds
    • Pest control
    • Custodial services except in areas particular to departments or activities classified as auxiliary enterprises. Auxiliary enterprises are generally known as activities not funded by legislative appropriation.

    DEPARTMENT-FUNDED SERVICES

    Department Funded Services are those services for which Facilities Management does not receive a budget allocation and which must be funded by the requesting department. Examples of this type of service include:

    • Minor alterations or renovations to buildings or structures assigned to departments and University activities.
    • Addition of special equipment such as laboratory equipment, mini blinds, special lighting, bulletin boards, etc..
    • Painting
    • State-owned vehicle repair services for vehicles assigned to the department
    • Movement of furnishings and equipment
    • Set up of furniture and equipment for special events and occasions

    Facilities Management charges for labor and materials for Department Funded Services. This includes labor shop rates, utilized materials, contractors, design services and other direct costs associated with accomplishing the work in accordance with all applicable codes and University policies.

Fixed Price Services

Fixed Price Services List

Fixed Price Services provides a means by which customers can quickly obtain pricing information for some of the most commonly requested types of work. It gives departments the ability to budget for the job without requesting and waiting for estimates and allows Facilities Management to route the work request straight to its various Trade Shops for completion.

Pricing of the work packages were determined using Facilities Management's extensive historical database of thousands of previously completed work. The pricing gives an accurate assessment of what the costs are to do the work in the ever-changing and challenging environment of the Health Science Center.

These are billed at a set rate, require no design effort, and can be expedited through the system. These services have a set scope of work and are not flexible in dealing with changing requirements.

Fixed Price work requests are typically accomplished during normal business hours. If the work is required to be completed during after-hours, the cost of the billable work will be adjusted to reflect actual costs.

Council Detail

Kenneth Hargreaves, D.D.S., Ph.D.

Professor and Chair, Dept of Endodontics, School of Dentistry, UT Health San Antonio

Professor, Departments of Pharmacology, Physiology and Surgery, Long School of Medicine, UT Health San Antonio

Dr. Ken Hargreaves received his D.D.S. from Georgetown University School of Dentistry and his Ph.D. in physiology from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, MD. He also completed a postdoctoral fellowship in clinical and basic pain research at the National Institute of Health and his residency in endodontics from the University of Minnesota.

He joined the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, as Professor and Chair of the Department of Endodontics in 1997, and is jointly appointed as a professor in the Departments of Pharmacology and Physiology and Surgery (Medical School).

His area of research focuses on the pharmacology of pain and inflammation and currently he serves as a private investigator or co-private investigator on $30 million in NIH research grants. He has received an NIH MERIT Award and the 2013 UT Health San Antonio Presidential Distinguished Senior Research Scholar Award.

He has published 160 papers, two textbooks, and has five patents issued/pending. Among these papers are the description and validation of the “Hargreaves method,” which is broadly recognized as a standard method for evaluating new analgesic drugs, and is in the top 5 percent of all papers cited in the field of pain research.

Education

  • B.A., Neurobiology, University of California Berkeley, 1977
  • D.D.S., Georgetown University, 1983
  • Ph.D., Physiology, Uniformed Services University of the Health Science, 1986
  • Postdoc lab of Ron Dubner, National Institutes of Health, 1985-90
  • Certificate in Endodontics, University of Minnesota, 1993

Career path

I am a clinician-scientist who is focused on basic and clinical translational research on pain. I use a “team science” approach both within my group as well as with deep sustained collaborations among several pain labs on campus. I got to this point in my career by focusing on the gap between basic scientists and clinicians.

In my opinion, this “desert” hinders development of novel therapies since basic scientists do not have direct patient experience and clinicians do not have experience with mechanistic research. These problems hinder development of break-through therapeutics. I believe that this problem is ideally addressed by clinician-scientists and team science.

Career Choices

Common Career Choices for Science Ph.D. Grads

If you are a life science Ph.D., or are on your way to getting one, and are thinking about what to do next, here are five common jobs people choose after graduating:

Academic postdoc

Unsurprisingly, 80 percent of life science Ph.D. grads go on to do an academic postdoc. This is because 95 percent of Ph.D. students want to stay in academia and a postdoc is the next logical step in an academic career. However, it may not be the best choice for you as there are far more Ph.D. grads than tenured and tenure-track positions and only 5 - 16 percent of Ph.D. grads will eventually have their own lab. Also, for the first 15 years of their careers, postdocs, even those who eventually transition into an industry job, eventually earn 17 - 21 percent less than people who go straight into industry after a Ph.D.

Industry postdoc

Yes such as thing exists. Most big pharma and many big biotech companies including Pfizer, Janssen, AstraZeneca and Genetech (now part of Roche) have postdoctoral programs. They offer many of the same benefits as an academic postdoc with mentors and opportunities to publish and present work both internally and externally at conferences, but with the added bonus of learning how scientific discoveries are translated into products in an industry setting. Salaries are also much higher than for academic postdocs, starting at around $70,000/year with additional fringe benefits usually including: medical, dental and vision insurances; life and disability insurance; 401(k) and paid vacation time.

Scientific position in industry

These positions differ from industry postdocs in that you are not working on an entire project, you are contributing to a project. You will be told what experiments to do and will have less freedom than a postdoc. However, you will still have the opportunity to learn how a pharma or biotech company works and will be able to move up in R&D or move laterally into communications, business development or other roles.

Science communications

When Ph.D. students and postdocs are thinking about non-academic careers, science communications is often at the top of their list. Science communication is a hugely diverse field encompassing many different types of jobs and sub-fields including science journalism, marketing, public relations, institutional communications, medical and technical writing, medical science liaisons and public education and outreach. The list is huge. If you like to write and present information and think this field will suit you, talk to someone who works in SciComm to work out which job would be best the best fit for you.

Sales

If you want to work in industry but don't want to do bench research, sales can be a good entry-level position. It allows you to learn about how the company works and you can work your way up and across into business development, product management or project management. It takes time to find a new job so it really helps if you can make the time to start researching jobs, building skills and networking at least 12 months before you want to transition.

Research

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Research is the foundation of the Clinical and Translational Science Award at UTHSCSA. Moreover, translational research, which is translating the findings in basic research more quickly and efficiently into medical practice and, thus meaningful health outcomes that directly impact the lives of our community, is our mission.

For clinical investigators looking for space to carry out clinical research, the IIMS offers several options in the Medical Center area as well as brand new research space at the RAHC. Descriptions of the facilities and resources are available here.

We offer Pilot Project Awards to provide funding to develop, monitor and expand a process to facilitate and support pilot and collaborative translational and clinical studies that will result in increased institutional and community-based trans-disciplinary research with a goal of improved health.

To develop and sustain an innovative paradigm to facilitate availability and use of state-of-the-art techniques for translational research, we provide Translational Technology Supplement Awards.

There are many ways for researchers to locate collaborators. We have selected Elsevier SciVal Experts (previously known as Collexis) as a platform for our researchers. We also provide access to BioMedExperts, a new online community that connects biomedical researchers to each other through co-author networks.

For our potential and current study participants, as well as researchers looking for a way to recruit subjects for an IRB approved study, we offer a list of our current clinical research studies, a safe participant registry for those interested in participating in research and a way for researchers to register to access that registry. Find more information on this page.

Across the country, healthcare experts, administrators, researchers, and clinicians are devising and testing new strategies to improve the safety and quality of patient care.

Yet, while patient safety and quality improvement in bedside care are clearly-stated national priorities, improvement science remains in a nascent stage, particularly in the area of multidisciplinary care processes within the hospital setting.

Services

PBRN Resource Center

The Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN) Resource Center serves as the operational base for developing new and supporting existing PBRNs in the South Texas region. The primary function of the PBRN Resource Center is to facilitate opportunities for collaboration between Health Science Center investigators and community clinicians to utilize the PBRN as their real world laboratory and to engage community clinicians in practice-based research. To accelerate the translation of clinical research into practice, new partnerships with clinicians who deliver the majority of care to the US population need to be supported. We are dedicated to transforming existing academic-community clinician relationships.

Brief History

UT Health San Antonio received a Clinical Translational Science Award in May, 2008. The CTSA included funds to create a PBRN Resource Center. STARNet (South Texas Ambulatory Research Network) and RRNet (Residency Research Network) have more than 25 years of combined experience in PBRN research, and have served as models for the development of new PBRNs in psychiatry, dentistry, and nursing. The PBRN Resource Center is flourishing, and has become a key link in the CTSA efforts for “Community Engagement”, building T2 translational research in South Texas.

Q: What is a PBRN?
A: A PBRN is an organization comprised of community clinicians and researchers, united by a shared commitment to:
1) expand the science base of clinical care through studies conducted in their local clinic setting;
2) answer research questions generated by a community clinician; and
3) better understand health issues in their community clinical settings.
PBRNs have been described by the Institute of Medicine as a promising laboratory for transforming the relationship between academic researchers and community clinicians.

Q: What is a Practice Facilitator?
A:The PBRN infrastructure expansion model is based on the agricultural extension agent model, with “Practice Enhancement Research Coordinators (PERCs)” taking on the role of the extension agent.
PERCs are “circuit riders” who develop a relationship with a group of practices over a period of time to help them to evaluate and improve their quality of care.
This is generally accomplished through practice audits and feedback, patient satisfaction surveys, staff training, “cross-fertilization” (sharing of ideas among the eight practices), coordination of quality improvement initiatives, and provision of specific materials and resources (flow sheets, computer training, etc.).
A PERC also functions as a research assistant, making it easier for practices to participate in research projects undertaken by the PBRN. Also known as “practice facilitators,” this model of combining practice assistance with research has proven to be extremely successful in both Oklahoma and Oregon PBRNs.

Creating the future of healthcare

UT Health San Antonio’s Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine has been training physicians since 1968.

The Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine at UT Health San Antonio is the largest trainer of physicians in South Texas, many of whom remain in San Antonio and the region to practice medicine. With full accreditation by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), the school annually educates more than 900 students and trains 800 residents.

The UT Health Physicians practice is the largest vertically integrated medical group in San Antonio with 850 physicians in more than 100 specialties. This is powerful for patients, because specialists who are at the top of their professions work together in close proximity. Only here can a patient see these specialists as part of one team, each talking to the other about the patient's case. The spectrum of health care extends from primary care in health maintenance and disease prevention, all the way through the most complex specialty care, such as liver transplants or curing cardiac arrhythmias.

The Long School of Medicine and UT Health San Antonio have a highly productive research enterprise replete with basic scientific discoveries and state-of-the-art clinical care. World leaders in Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, cancer, aging and kidney disease, to name a few fields, are translating molecular discoveries into new therapies for these diseases. School of Medicine faculty members regularly publish in the top journals in the nation. UT Health San Antonio is home to the only National Cancer Institute designated Cancer Center in Central and South Texas, and a National Health Institute funded aging center and clinical trials center

San Antonio is fertile ground for testing new clinical treatments because demographically it is what the nation will look like in 20 years. The School of Medicine's clinical, research and educational partnerships with University Health System, the military including the South Texas Veterans Health Care System, and numerous state and private partners enrich San Antonio's large biosciences and health care economic sector.

DME Programs

Programs

Department of Medical Education

The Department of Medical Education values collaboration and partnership. Our approach to effective program development has been to work collaboratively across Centers, Departments, and Offices within our academic community at the Lozano Long School of Medicine. It is our desire to help envision, support, and shape programs across the Medical School.

  • Collaborative Programs

    Forum Theater

    The Department of Medical Education in collaboration with the Center for Medical Humanities & Ethics and Trinity University offer opportunities for unique educational experiences exploring more challenging topics such as Trauma Informed Care, Cultural Humility, Learner mistreatment. The unique modality of Forum Theater allows us to present scenarios to participants, who subsequently can act in the play to alter the outcome of the scenario. The participants are called “Spect-Actors”. This type of theater was introduced by a Brazilian Drama theorist named Augusto Boal in the early 1970’s and used to effect social justice change.

    ACGME/Texas Regional Hub

    The Regional Hub was a collaborative faculty development effort between UT Health San Antonio, SAUSHEC and UT Dell Medical school and the ACGME. UT Health San Antonio hosted the inaugural program in November 2019.

    Rising Leaders Workshop

    The Rising Leaders Workshop was developed in conjunction with the Office for Faculty, Dental School, School of Nursing, UME, the Military Health Institute, supported by the Vice President for Academic, Faculty and Student affairs to help develop leaders on the UT Health campus. The Rising Leaders program has a longitudinal component for participants who have completed the initial Rising Leaders Program.

New Opportunities for Wellness Clinic

The mission of NOW is to ensure that all Bexar County residents have rapid and sustained access to behavioral health services. We aim to help clients learn to manage their own behavioral health needs, minimize disruption to people’s lifestyles and livelihoods, and prevent psychiatric hospitalization. We believe in the following standards of care:

Evidence-based Practice: Skills-focused, evidence-based treatments form the foundation of the NOW Clinic. We believe in the importance of providing treatment that has been shown to be effective for each client’s specific concerns.

Community Resources: At the NOW Clinic, we believe thoughtful linkage to community-based resources helps clients build the supports they need to build and sustain a life worth living. We provide case management to every client to identify their needs and appropriate resources.

Clinic Culture: Our staff prize the dignity, autonomy, and growth-orientation of clients. We appreciate and respect the various identities that make us unique, including race, age, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, religion, spirituality, and family structure. We acknowledge that some identities can be devalued by our environments and that these experiences can affect how we feel about ourselves, others, and the world we live in.

Most Major Insurances Accepted

NOW accepts most major insurances, including Medicare and Medicaid. The clinic also accepts CareLink.

Model of Care

For most people, behavioral health difficulties occur occasionally, with periods of symptoms that may vary in type and severity. NOW treatment was developed to fit this pattern. Clients receive intensive services early in treatment and during periods when symptoms are worse and less intensive services in times of greater wellness. Treatment episodes at NOW typically last 3–4 months. Counselors and clients work together to identify signs that clients may need to return for additional counseling sessions.

Clients who do require long-term, intensive services are linked by our care coordination team to a professional provider within the community who can provide that care.

  • Services Offered
    • Psychiatry/Medication Management
    • Counseling
      • Individual Therapy. Counseling services are designed to help clients build skills that empower them to recognize and manage their symptoms on their own, leading to decreased need for services over time.
      • Couples & Family Therapy. These services are designed to help enhance relationship quality and satisfaction, improve family dynamics, and provide a space to share experiences or concerns with partners or family members.
      • Group Therapy*. NOW and its affiliated UT Health San Antonio clinics offer a variety of psychotherapy groups. Each group has eligibility requirements for entry. Some are open to all UT Health clients, while others require screening. Current groups include:
        • Anxiety & Stress Management, Wednesdays, 1–2 PM. Available to current UT Health patients on a drop-in basis
        • Chronic Pain, Tuesdays, 4:30–5:30 PM. Requires screening. Please contact xxx-xxx-xxxx or {email} to schedule.
        • Coping with Grief, Wednesdays, 4–5 PM. Requires screening. Please contact xxx-xxx-xxxx or {email} to schedule.
        • Stress Management, Thursdays, 4–5 PM. Available to current UT Health patients on a drop-in basis.
      • Case Management. NOW case managers help clients find resources for needs such as health insurance, prescription assistance, basic needs (e.g., food, housing), transportation, disability services, legal services, and community support.
      • Peer Support. A peer is a person with lived experience of recovery from mental illness or addiction. NOW has state-certified peer specialists and interns available onsite. Peers support long-term recovering by combining their experiences with skills learned in formal training.
      • Crisis Support. NOW provides crisis support to clients through the Living Room, an area at University Plaza (around the corner from NOW). The Living Room is open Monday–Friday, 8 AM–4 PM, and clients may call ahead or come to the Living Room without an appointment. There, a counselor provides help to clients experiencing a mental health crisis, such as a panic attack, a significant increase in stress, worsening mental health symptoms, or the urge to do something that could have negative consequences, such as hurting oneself. The goal is to help clients use skills and resources to cope with a crisis and help them avoid hospitalization.
      • Relapse Prevention Workshops. One-time workshops are available by appointment to help clients dealing with substance use problems develop a long-term recovery plan. These sessions help clients use problem-solving skills to prevent relapse and maximize harm-reduction skills if relapse does occur.


      • *All group therapy services are currently provided online due to COVID-19 precautions. If you are interested in one of our groups, please contact {link to contact page} the clinic and ask for more information.

  • Specialty Programs

    NOW offers specialty services in three areas: trauma therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Adaptation Training (CAT) for serious mental illness. Therapists offering these services are specially trained and maintain continuing education, seek any needed supervision, and keep up with relevant research findings in those areas. They are particularly qualified to work with clients who seek treatment in these areas. Just as you would visit a cardiologist for a heart problem, we recommend working with a trauma specialist if you are dealing with trauma.

    Trauma Therapy

    NOW clinicians treat clients dealing with trauma using evidence-based, trauma-specific treatments, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE).

    Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a structured treatment for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This 12- to 18-week individual therapy has been shown to reduce PTSD symptoms in over 70% of patients. CPT is provided by specially trained clinicians. The American Psychological Association Strongly Recommends CPT as a treatment for PTSD. For more information, please contact the CPT coordinator at xxx-xxx-xxxx or {email}.

    Prolonged Exposure (PE) is a specific type of individual cognitive behavioral therapy that teaches client with PTSD to gradually approach trauma-related memories, feelings, and situations. Treatment typically lasts 8 to 15 weeks. The American Psychological Association Strongly Recommends PE as a treatment for PTSD. For more information, please contact the PE coordinator at xxx-xxx-xxxx or {email}.

    Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

    DBT is a treatment for people who experience strong swings of emotion, often including anger, and who may have difficulty in relationships. These people may engage in problem behaviors such as suicidal behavior and non-suicidal self-injury (e.g., cutting, burning) and have difficulties with depression, anxiety, substance use, or eating disorders. These difficulties often relate to difficult early family experiences. The UT Health DBT Program treats only adults and primarily consists of Group Skills Training classes. For more information, please contact the DBT coordinator by emailing dbt@uthscsa.edu.

    Cognitive Adaptation Training for serious mental illness (CAT)

    CAT is an evidence-based psychosocial treatment designed to improve clients’ lives by helping them find ways around cognitive and motivational problems associated with serious mental illness. CAT interventions include environmental supports such as signs, checklists, alarms, pill containers, and organization of belongings to prompt clients to carry out helpful behaviors at home. The interventions are customized for each client based on a standardized assessment of their needs and challenges. For more information, please call the CAT coordinator at xxx-xxx-xxxx.

Welcome to the Transitional Care Clinic (TCC)

The TCC is dedicated to improving peoples’ lives by engaging them in mental health services and linking them to long-term services.

Our Services

We follow CDC guidelines for masking. Telehealth is available for individual therapy; all groups are currently online.



The TCC is dedicated to improving peoples’ lives by engaging them in mental health services and linking them to long-term services. Our aim is to promote growth toward personal goals and decrease the need for psychiatric hospitalization. The TCC fosters clinical excellence, person-centered care, and the development of tomorrow’s mental health professionals through interprofessional education.

The TCC is a short-term clinic that helps people transition from psychiatric care at a local hospital to long-term mental health care in the community. The TCC typically works with people for approximately three months. People are discharged from the clinic when they begin psychiatric treatment and/or counseling in a different clinic in the community.

Appointments are required, and services are by referral only. Referrals are accepted from designated staff at San Antonio hospitals via the Monarch secure online referral system.

Evidence-based Practice: Short-term, evidence-based treatments form the foundation of the TCC. We believe in the importance of providing treatment that has been shown to be effective for each client’s specific concerns.

Clinic Culture: Our staff prize the dignity, autonomy, and growth-orientation of clients. We appreciate and respect the various identities that make us unique, including race, age, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, religion, spirituality, and family structure. We acknowledge that some identities can be devalued by our environments and that these experiences can affect how we feel about ourselves, others, and the world we live in.

The TCC does not require insurance. The clinic does accept most major insurances, including Medicare and Medicaid. We also accept CareLink.

Who We Serve

Referrals are accepted only from participating hospitals and only via the Monarch secure online referral system. Patients must

  • be at least 18 years old
  • have been discharged from a partner hospital within the past 30 days
  • be medically stable/cleared for outpatient treatment
  • have an evaluation by a medical or mental health provider that documents the need for outpatient mental health treatment
  • have transportation to and from appointments
  • agree to participate in outpatient health services
  • be stable enough to wait to be seen by a mental health prescriber for at least 4 days after the date of the scheduled TCC intake appointment
  • be stable enough to participate in a low intensity, outpatient clinical setting
    • require <1 appointment/week with a prescriber
    • need only low-intensity case management services

Referring providers are responsible for prescribing enough medication to ensure patients can wait at least 3 weeks for their first appointment with a psychiatrist or nurse practitioner.

Patients who already have mental health care in the community are not appropriate for referral to the TCC. The TCC treats patients who have no immediate access to an outpatient mental health provider.

The TCC does not require insurance. The clinic does accept most major insurances, including Medicare and Medicaid. We also accept CareLink.

Prescribers at the TCC typically do not treat clients whose primary psychiatric medication is a psychostimulant or benzodiazepine. TCC prescribers do not generally prescribe these classes of medications.

What diagnoses are accepted?

The TCC treats patients with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, unspecified psychosis, and other non-substance related diagnosis. Patients may have co-occurring substance-use diagnoses only if there is no acute need for detox/withdrawal symptoms.

Patients with a primary substance abuse diagnosis are better served by referral to a substance abuse clinic. For the patients’ benefit, we encourage discharge planners to contact the Center for Health Care Services (CHCS) COPS-D program at 210-261-1000 or Mid-Coast Family Services at 210-271-9452 for more information on the choices for substance abuse treatment.

Access—Initial Appointment

New clients attend Access Group, the TCC’s intake procedure. Access takes place every weekday, at 1 PM on Mondays and at 8:45 AM Tuesdays–Fridays. During Access, patients meet with a member of the TCC’s psychosocial staff for assessment. Clients will be scheduled with a psychiatrist within 1 to 3 weeks from the date of their TCC intake appointment. We cannot guarantee availability of appointments if referring providers do not prescribe sufficient medication.

About

About Basic

About

Since 2004, UT Health San Antonio, Greehey Children's Cancer Research Institute's (Greehey CCRI) mission has been to advance scientific knowledge relevant to childhood cancer, contribute to the understanding of its causes, and accelerate the translation of knowledge into novel therapies. Through discovery, development, and dissemination of new scientific knowledge, Greehey CCRI strives to have a national and global impact on childhood cancer. Our mission consists of three key areas — research, clinical, and education.

Our Faculty

Research

Our strengths include cancer genomics, DNA damage, RNA biology, and drug development. We are developing expertise in drug delivery, focusing on nanotechnology-driven delivery of small RNA mimics and inhibitors. The Pediatric Translational Working Group, formed as part of the Mays Cancer Center P30, meets regularly to coordinate discoveries to develop novel therapies.

Research Focus

  • Bioinformatics and genomics
  • Cancer biology
  • Cancer control
  • Experimental therapeutics
  • Genome instability
  • Molecular oncogenesis
  • RNA biology

Core Facilities

  • Computational biology and bioinformatics
  • Genome and exome sequencing
  • RNA expression profiling
  • PDX generation
  • RNAi/CRISPR HTS
  • Small molecule HTS

Clinical

Greehey CCRI interacts with members of the UT Health San Antonio, Division of Pediatric Hematology-Oncology to provide support for clinical research, banking of clinical specimens, and annotation of such specimens to facilitate patient-oriented research. As our clinical mission includes performing research that translates into clinical care, Greehey CCRI supports infrastructure for human subjects' research and investigator-initiated trials in pediatric cancer. Since much of the research in pediatric cancer includes participation in cooperative group trials, Greehey CCRI supports the involvement of investigators in Children's Oncology Group participation.

This year, the UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center has become a member of The Pediatric Oncology Experimental Therapeutics Investigators' Consortium (POETIC); pediatric oncology studies focus on the biologic basis for anti-cancer therapy, and in particular, attempt to explore and evaluate new agents and novel combinations of therapies early in clinical development.

Education

The educational mission of the Greehey Children's Cancer Research Institute is to train the next generation of researchers in pediatric cancer research. This includes creating a pipeline of trainees through our program for undergraduates engaged in summer research, medical students within the MD with Distinction in Research program, fellows in the ACGME-approved hematology-oncology fellowship program, as well as the traditional graduate programs in Cancer Biology and other relevant areas. We also provide a nurturing home for post-doctoral graduate research training. In the past five years, we have graduated eight new PhDs, and trained four pediatric oncology fellows as well as hosted several dozen summer undergraduate students.

Creating the future of healthcare

UT Health San Antonio's Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine has been training physicians since 1968.

The Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine at UT Health San Antonio is the largest trainer of physicians in South Texas, many of whom remain in San Antonio and the region to practice medicine. With full accreditation by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), the school annually educates more than 900 students and trains 800 residents.

The UT Health Physicians practice is the largest vertically integrated medical group in San Antonio with 850 physicians in more than 100 specialties. This is powerful for patients, because specialists who are at the top of their professions work together in close proximity. Only here can a patient see these specialists as part of one team, each talking to the other about the patient's case. The spectrum of health care extends from primary care in health maintenance and disease prevention, all the way through the most complex specialty care, such as liver transplants or curing cardiac arrhythmias.

The Long School of Medicine and UT Health San Antonio have a highly productive research enterprise replete with basic scientific discoveries and state-of-the-art clinical care. World leaders in Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, cancer, aging and kidney disease, to name a few fields, are translating molecular discoveries into new therapies for these diseases. School of Medicine faculty members regularly publish in the top journals in the nation. UT Health San Antonio is home to the only National Cancer Institute designated Cancer Center in Central and South Texas, and a National Health Institute funded aging center and clinical trials center.

San Antonio is fertile ground for testing new clinical treatments because demographically it is what the nation will look like in 20 years. The School of Medicine's clinical, research and educational partnerships with University Health System, the military including the South Texas Veterans Health Care System, and numerous state and private partners enrich San Antonio's large biosciences and health care economic sector.

"Our clinical, research and educational partnerships with University Health System, the military including the South Texas Veterans Health Care System, and numerous state and private partners enrich San Antonio's large biosciences and health care economic sector. Thank you for your interest in the Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine!"

Mission and vision

Our mission is to provide responsive and comprehensive education, research and service of the highest quality in order to meet the health-related needs of the citizens of Texas. In all aspects of fulfilling this mission, we are committed to demonstrating particular sensitivity to and focus on the South Texas region while fostering the broadest diversity and inclusion that ensures successful achievement of the institutional priorities.

Our history

When The University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio opened its doors to students on Sept. 3, 1968, "there was great excitement and enthusiasm," recalled Marvin Forland, M.D., who was among the first faculty members and still works on campus today at the age of 85.

Alumni

Health San Antonio is committed to delivering lifelong value to alumni of our five schools. Alumni Relations offers resources such as continuing medical education, community service learning initiatives, an alumni directory and more.

Undergraduate Medical Education

Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)

Foundation modules

The 20-month preclinical curriculum begins with three foundational modules, Molecules to Medicine, Attack and Defense and Language of Medicine. Within each module, there is a progression of knowledge in a systematic fashion and weekly thematic content synthesized via a small group interactive patient case.

Longitudinal modules

There are two longitudinal modules threaded throughout the preclinical curriculum: Medicine, Behavior, and Society (MBS) and Clinical Skills. MBS explores the areas of history, law, ethics, clinical, social and cultural contexts of medicine as well as human behavior & development over the lifespan (cognitive, social and emotional development from infancy to death). In Clinical Skills students learn medical history taking and physical exam techniques using standardized and real patients.

The preclinical phase of the curriculum concludes with students taking the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) Comprehensive Basic Science Exam (CBSE) and meeting established score benchmarks in order to progress to the clinical phase of the curriculum.

Aune Lab

Research and Advocacy for Childhood Cancer Survivors.

Long-term survivors of childhood cancer are a growing population. Approximately two-thirds of survivors are afflicted with a severe health condition that is directly related to their previous exposure to cancer therapies. Emerging research suggests that these individuals exhibit a phenotype of premature aging, as indicated by substantially higher rates of cardiac dysfunction, ovarian failure, neurocognitive deficits, neurosensory deficits, and second cancers. Our overall goal is to use preclinical laboratory models to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of organ damage caused by pediatric cancer treatment.

The mission of the Aune Laboratory is composed of three core goals:

  1. Conducting high-quality basic science that increases our knowledge of how chemotherapy and radiation affect healthy tissues and lead to late health effects in long-term pediatric cancer survivors
  2. Translating laboratory findings into the clinic to allow pediatric oncologists to identify high-risk patients and to lay a foundation for the development of novel strategies to prevent healthy tissue damage occurring during exposure to standard chemotherapy regimens
  3. Educate patients and our local community about the growing public health problem of late effects in pediatric cancer survivors. Via these efforts, we will raise awareness and promote fundraising to establish Greehey CCRI as a national leader in the effort to solve the problem of pediatric cancer late effects

Lab Research

Over the past 60 years, research in pediatric oncology has made remarkable progress. In the 1950s, a pediatric cancer diagnosis carried a dismal prognosis, with fewer than 10% of children surviving. Today, approximately 75% of all children receiving a diagnosis of cancer survive longer than five years. With the dramatically improved success rates, survivors are challenged with a variety of life-threatening and chronic late health effects related to their cancer therapy. These include cardiovascular disease, infertility, neurocognitive deficits, and a variety of endocrine problems. During the first decade of the 21st century, epidemiologic research has clearly defined the severity of the late effects problem we face in pediatric oncology. A seminal paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2004 by Oeffinger et al. reported that 67% of all long-term survivors of pediatric cancer suffer from at least one late effect. More alarming, Oeffinger’s study reported that 25% of cancer survivors suffer from a life-threatening late effect such as coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, multiple second malignancies, or stroke. In the United States, there are approximately 325,000 survivors of pediatric cancer, and the State of Texas has as many as 30,000. As our national research efforts continue to improve cure rates for all pediatric cancers, the number of survivors in the U.S. and Texas will continue to increase.

In 2012, the National Cancer Institute had a proposed budget of $5.8 billion. The vast majority of these earmarked funds will be tumor-focused and aimed at understanding the biology and basic science of cancer and the development of novel treatments. Only a small fraction will be available to fund survivorship research, and an even smaller fraction will support research aimed at understanding the underlying biological effects chemotherapy and radiation have on healthy tissues. The unparalleled success of the previous 60 years of pediatric oncology research has ushered in a new era. We must begin to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms leading to severe late effects. In this current era of rapidly advancing biomedical research technology, focusing some of our resources on the problem of late effects has the potential to fundamentally transform the practice of pediatric oncology over the coming decades. Successful endeavors will lead to novel therapies, decreased morbidity in survivors, and the creation of formal institutional programs aimed at expanding efforts to understand the basic science of late effects.

Community Awareness & Fundraising

There are upwards of 30,000 long-term survivors of pediatric cancer that reside in the State of Texas. By using the 2010 census data, it is estimated that as many as 3,000 citizens in the South Texas region are survivors of pediatric cancer. Currently, the South Texas Cancer Survivorship Program actively follows approximately 400 patients. Furthermore, surveys of adult medical practitioners indicate a fundamental lack of knowledge regarding the severity of late effects in pediatric cancer survivors. Therefore, there is a large population of patients at high-risk for life-threatening health effects that are not receiving the comprehensive expert care their medical condition requires. To improve the lives of these patients, we must educate survivors, medical providers, and our surrounding community. We must strengthen our medical systems to provide consistent and cutting edge long-term care. To accomplish these tasks, community awareness and fundraising are a top-priority of the Aune laboratory.

New alumni council supports wide range of SHP efforts

scenery

The School of Health Professions Alumni Council held its inaugural meeting virtually in January.

The council represents the voice of health professions alumni and supports the mission and goals of the School of Health Professions while serving as an advisory council in conjunction with alumni initiatives at the school.

The council’s support extends to advocacy, and volunteer, philanthropic, and faculty and student recruitment efforts. During the first meeting, council members shared ideas for engaging alumni and students, including possible mentorship opportunities.

“We are thrilled to launch this initiative to explore ways to strengthen engagement and foster opportunities for productive partnerships together with our alumni,” said Lindsay Helsel, director of development for the School of Health Professions.

Members of the inaugural council are graduates of the school’s programs, including two current faculty members.

They include:

  • Kathryn Crane, MOT, 2017
  • Tracey Fontenot, BS, PT, 1996
  • Carlos Herrera III, MOT, OTR, 2019
  • Lynda Jennings, BS, OTR, 1990
  • Michael Nash, PT, DPT, LMT, 2019
  • Sarah Purcell, MOT, 2018
  • Kenneth Queliza, PT, DPT, 2017
  • Bridgett Piernik-Yoder, PhD, OTR, 1993, Department of Occupational Therapy chair and associate professor
  • Kristina Ramirez, MPH, RRT, CHES, FCCP, Class of 2012, assistant professor and director of clinical education in the Division of Respiratory Care

The council will hold two meetings each year. Although the current council was appointed, subsequent members will be elected by the council and they would love to hear from fellow alumni who may have an interest in sharing their time and expertise in the future. Council members serve two-year terms and can renew up to three consecutive terms.

For more information on the council or to learn more about opportunities to support the School of Health Professions, please visit https://makelivesbetter.uthscsa.edu/health or contact helsell@uthscsa.edu.

(TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint", "Attached", "The Child", "Evolution"; TNG-R: "Conundrum"; Star Trek: First Contact).

As a fully-certified bridge officer, Crusher commanded the Enterprise-D on several occasions, most notably in 2370 while nearly the entire crew was searching for Data on a renegade Borg planet. The ship was attacked by a Borg vessel, but her quick thinking allowed the Enterprise to escape and destroy the Borg ship. (TNG: "Descent", "Descent, Part II") She also occasionally commanded night watch shifts in order to stay on top of starship operations. (TNG: "Thine Own Self").

Longevity & Aging

High-level marketing copy about this area that is understandable by users who aren’t scientists / are from the general public. Example from Salk - One thing’s for certain: we get older. But the biology of aging is still largely a mystery. As for getting sick as we age - we think that might be optional. At Salk, we are dechiphering the molecular and cellular causes of aging, and searching for ways to stave off Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease and other age-related ailments. We’re studying how the boyd heals itself, and we’re working on stem-cell technologies that may one day be used to replace organs damaged by injury and disease. They say aging isn’t for the timid, but we think bold science could help people stay healthy as they age.

Aging & Dementia Research

We build inclusive communities that promote engagement of older adults living with chronic disease, including dementia.

Our research is focused on supporting quality of life among older adults living with a chronic illness or disability, such as Alzheimer’s’ Disease and related dementias, through community engagement, such as the Dementia Friendly San Antonio initiative. We use community-participatory research methods to augment the voices of people living with dementia to pursue research that is meaningful to them.

Our research often focuses on social wellness, including social support, engagement, and functioning to improve quality of life and prevent loneliness among older adults living with a physical and cognitive condition that affects their functional ability.

Cranial Remolding Therapy

Cranial Remolding Program

Related to: Cranial remolding helmets, Cranial remolding orthosis, Head shape abnormality treatment, Post-Operative cranial synostosis, Flat head syndrome treatment, Brachycephaly treatment, Scaphocephaly treatment, Deformational plagiocephaly treatment, Plagiocepahly, Head shape evaluation

The UT Health Cranial Remolding Program provides the only full-time, dedicated team for cranial remolding therapy in the San Antonio area.

UT Health's Cranial Remolding Program specializes in the comprehensive evaluation and treatment of head shape abnormalities in infants. These deformities are relatively common and highly treatable with early intervention and expert management. Physicians, neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons and physical therapists from across San Antonio and South Texas utilize our program for our unmatched experience, expertise, technology and exceptional patient care.

Roughly 20 percent of children develop some kind of head shape abnormality during infancy. Often, head shape abnormalities are attributed to conditions like plagiocephaly and craniosynostosis. Cranial molding therapy is often recommended for moderate to severe cases to correct these abnormalities and ensure proper head growth.

When an infant is referred to us by their physician, we evaluate their head shape using an FDA-approved, state-of-the-art STARscanner. This eye-safe laser allows us to safely and painlessly scan an infant’s head in less than two seconds. The STARscanner provides detailed data that helps us determine the best approach to treatment. It is also used to document changes in the shape of an infant’s head over the course of their specific treatment plan.

Once the scans are evaluated and a customized treatment plan is established, the infant will be fitted with a STARband Cranial Remolding Orthotic Helmet. These Cranial Remolding Orthoses guide and promote growth to specific areas while inhibiting it in others. For patients with plagiocephaly, the STARband Cranial Remolding Orthoses is worn 23 hours a day for an average of three to five months (depending on their age and the severity of their condition). For patients with craniosynostosis, a treatment plan will require them to wear a Post-Operative Cranial Remolding Orthoses following their surgery. The exact parameters of the treatment plan will be dependent on the patient’s needs as well as the severity of their condition.

New alumni council supports wide range of SHP efforts

A quick 1-2 sentences (with character limit) on what this story summarizes. A quick 1-2 sentences (with character limit) on what this story summarizes.

Ethnic minorities who have immigrated to the United States have experienced health issues—namely high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes–and a Korean American researcher at UT Health San Antonio’s School of Nursing wants to find out why.

Jisook Ko, Ph.D., M.S.N., RN, assistant professor of nursing, came to the United States in 2011 after earning her B.S.N. and M.S.N. at Yonsei University in South Korea.

During her first year, she assembled a multi-disciplinary research mentoring team and launched two pilot studies—one focusing on Korean Americans who are experiencing high blood pressure and another focusing on Asian Americans who have developed Type 2 diabetes.

First Pilot Study: Korean Americans who are experiencing high blood pressure

For the first study of Korean Americans, who are one of the fastest-growing Asian subgroups in the U.S., she is using a finding from her dissertation that Korean Americans “consume 2.5 times more dietary sodium compared with the current recommendations.” Due to “bicultural diet patterns,” she said Korean Americans are mixing the western diet with the Korean contemporary diet, and this contributes to exceptionally high sodium consumption.

Diet is a key modifiable risk factor for chronic disease including high blood pressure. While many people take medication to control their high blood pressure, older Korean Americans are hesitant about taking medication. “They don’t want to start taking the medicine because they think it’s forever,” Dr. Ko explained. “They prefer a dietary approach instead of medication.” Dr. Ko explained. “They prefer a dietary approach instead of medication.”

However, most do not benefit from the full potential of dietary modification protective effects. This is due to a number of reasons, including high individual variability in response to certain diets or dietary guidelines and programs. It is now well acknowledged that in order to gain the full benefit of dietary regimes, it is essential to take into account the individual’s response to the diet.

This relationship is likely due to the variance of blood pressure response to alterations in dietary sodium intake as well. Salt sensitivity, defined as greater blood pressure response to sodium intake than average, is a major risk factor for high blood pressure and increased cardiovascular risk and is highly relevant given that 99 percent of U.S. adults exceed the recommended daily intake for salt. Salt sensitivity is more prevalent in African Americans and Asian populations, including Korean Americans, than their white counterparts.

Dr. Ko is now conducting a feasibility study of investigating a salt sensitivity biomarker that is a critical factor of individual variability to dietary sodium intake. Until now, there are no validated rapid tests or diagnostic markers to identify salt sensitivity of blood pressure in clinical practice. Dr. Ko is proposing examining salt sensitivity using a genetics approach which is published in a recent article in her feasibility study. She is collaborating with Teresa Johnson-Pais, Ph.D., associate professor/research of urology in the Long School of Medicine and co-director of the UT Health San Antonio Biobanking and Genome Analysis Core Laboratory, and Darpan Patel, Ph.D., associate professor of nursing and director of the Biobehavioral Research Laboratory in the School of Nursing.

Dr. Ko has identified a sample of 40 Korean Americans in San Antonio with high blood pressure. Study participants were asked to have their blood drawn for the genetic testing of salt sensitivity and provide a urine sample for assessing their sodium level.

The pilot study is funded by $12,000 from the Nursing Advisory Council at the School of Nursing and $1,500 from an external nursing organization, Sigma Theta Tau Delta Alpha-at-Large Chapter. After the pilot study, Dr. Ko will use a larger sample. “Then I can develop the personalized sodium reduction program concerning the sodium-sensitivity biomarker, and the final step can be modifying the dietary recommendations based on the identified mechanism,” she said.

Second Pilot Study: Asian Americans who have developed Type 2 diabetes.

The second study is focusing on why Asian Americans over 65 years of age get Type 2 diabetes. Funded by $35,000 from the Asian Resource Center for Minority Aging Research supported by the National Institute on Aging, a division of the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Ko is seeking Asian Americans in San Antonio who are first-generation immigrants from Korea, China, and South Asia, which includes Filipinos and South Indians.

Although Asian Americans tend to maintain a healthy weight with a lower body mass index compared with whites and Hispanics, they have higher prevalence rates of Type 2 diabetes, worse diabetes control, and higher rates of complications due to limited English proficiency and health literacy. Dr. Ko wants to see if diet is a factor.

Older Asian Americans don’t usually eat a lot of sugar, Dr. Ko said, but they are still consuming traditional grains of rice and noodles as their major source of carbohydrates. She wants to see what kind of foods they are eating and what kind of food sources contribute to their high blood glucose.

She has chosen metabolites as the measurable tool to gauge the response to their diet. Although researchers cannot see every single metabolite, some studies have identified metabolites relating to Type 2 diabetes.

Her collaborators are Yan Du, Ph.D., M.P.H., RN, post-doctoral student concentrating on the Chinese population; Rozmin Jiwani, Ph.D., RN, who will help recruit South Asians; and Jing Wang, Ph.D., M.P.H., M.S.N., RN, FAAN, vice dean for research for the School of Nursing and director of the school’s Center on Smart and Connected Health Technologies.

“This population still needs culturally tailored care for their chronic disease,” Dr. Ko said, pointing to the precision health approach. “Advances in the field of nutritional science have facilitated the shift from the general population-based guidelines to more precise dietary recommendations. In addition to the culturally tailored guidance for ethnic minority populations, we need to provide more precise approaches based on their response to the current dietary recommendations.”

An appropriate method for measuring and assessing dietary intake is required. Digital health technology can collect not only real-time food intake but also health data from people on their own timeline. It also contributes to enabling more personalized self-management of chronic disease through acquiring personal data and formulating the most individualized interventions. Thus, study participants will have the opportunity to use digital health technology, such as a wearable device and its companion dietary mobile app and wireless monitors of blood pressure and blood glucose.

Thania Leal

Class of 2016

Program/Major: Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care

Department: Division of Respiratory Care

Optional Figcaption here

Thania Leal started out at UTSA completing prerequisites for the UT Health San Antonio’s Physician Assistant program, but after receiving an email from Richard Wettstein, an associate professor in the respiratory care department, she decided to shadow respiratory care professionals.

She was pre-accepted into the respiratory care program, and felt it was inevitable that she would end up at UT Health San Antonio.

Today, Leal is thankful for the job and volunteer placement programs the school has in place for students. There is a volunteer coordinator for the respiratory program, and through their help, students get to see a lot of different systems and make connections with vendors and other professionals in the respiratory care field. Current students get to socialize with recent graduates from the program who help them later down the line when they are starting their careers. She even met someone who graduated from UT Health San Antonio and then relocated to Houston. That new friend has helped Leal secure a position in Houston as well. The students and graduates from the respiratory care department help one another move up and on to start and continue wonderful careers in an field that they love.
